Shooter grade ones that are mechanically good are $150-250.

Been a long time since I've seen one for less than $300-350, then again I haven't been to a gun show in years since I work weekends. :sad20:

Colt Commando ,1942. Most came with plastic "Coltwood" grips but some early ones had wood grips. I believe the grips are original due to 4 digit sn. Story on this one is it was a Hagerstown Police Dept issue. I have yet to find documentation on that. Hopefully a letter from Colt shows that to be the case, but I am not holding my breath.

That's the usual price these days unfortunately. The price I cited is for the deals at gun shows you must snag quick and/or the ones that have next to no finish remaining, but are still mechanically solid.

I found the 36 in the pic I posted on GB for $425 shipped. It looks to be unfired, no turn line at all. Actually all of them in the pic are from GB. Even if isn't listed as C&R in the ad just ask the seller if they'll ship to C&R if it's pre '65.

Some great pics so far guys, keep 'em coming...

Here's a High Standard Sentinel snub, 9 shot 22lr. A nice cheap way to get your C&R fix. Lol. Sorry for the crappy pic.

Funny, I just got one of these delivered to me last night. For what it is, it is actually a pretty solid little gun. Was pleasantly surprised. Mine has had a little more use on it than yours, but I bought it as another "walk in the woods" so that's OK... will probably take it out this weekend

I'll post mine on Sunday. Very nice revolvers everyone!

My only two at the moment, a pair of Japanese Type 26s

Speaking of C&R revolvers, anyone able to ID this cylinder? Found it a little while back in an old cleaning kit that belonged to my great grandfather, it was with some .22 ammo from the early 60's, so I'm guessing this is from the same period or maybe a little earlier. It's six shot, .22 cal, no markings other than a very light '136' electro penciled on one end. It's in perfect condition, don't think it was ever used but unfortunately I think the revolver it went to is long gone.

Not sure if there's a thread for this already? I searched and didn't see one. Share your C&R revolver pics here please.

I'm a Smith and Wesson fan, here's some I picked up with my C&R license:

(L-R) Military & Police Model 1905, 4th change. The next 2 are Pre Model 10's, the nickel one is marked Detroit Police with serial #. Model 36 no dash aka Chief's Special, flat latch. Model 34 no dash kit gun, 22lr also with flat latch.

For the record this post got my ass in gear and I just bought a model 10 snubby in 98% condition. I added a pic in the revolver porn thread!!!

I LOVE these and the parked finish! Beautiful wheelie bro!!! I was bidding on a GB one but bought the model 10 snub instead, well that and I lost

Slick!!

I wish there were less of the 32s. They are beautiful revolvers I want to buy but don't need another caliber hahaha

Post a pic. I haven't shot mine yet but I had a 6" Sentinel and it was pretty accurate.

I agree, I had to talk myself out of buying one a couple times.

Ruger Single Six is my guess. Cause I was looking at one tonight.

You're exactly right! I did a bit of digging a few days ago, it's an Old Model Single Six WMR cylinder

Boondock Saint · May 5, 2015

A lot of drool worthy iron in here.

Seems Gunbroker has a number of pre Model 10s but no pre Model 64s, what I understand to be the 10's stainless counterpart. I'd love to track one of those down in a snubby version.

Colt Police Postive 22LR

S&W New Departure (lemon squeezer) in original box

Hicap · May 7, 2015

Wow boom boom! Those are both in great condition, so is the box! Where'd you find those?

My guess also. Somewhere there's probably a Single Six sporting a WMR cylinder tucked away somewhere that lost it's companion cylinder.

If only they could talk.......the stories you'd likely hear.......
